{"title":"The Mystery of the Plate of Brass: California’s Greatest Hoax and the Search for its Perpetrators","authors":"Michael J. Moratto","doi":"10.1080/1947461X.2022.2069949","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/1947461X.2022.2069949","url":null,"abstract":"This book tells the story of the plate of brass found in Marin County, California, in the 1930s and for decades widely thought to be a relic of Francis Drake’s sixteenth-century visit. Technical analyses during the 1970s, however, showed the artifact to be a modern fake. But who made it, and for what purpose, and why was “California’s greatest hoax” not detected sooner? These are among the queries answered by the authors, based upon research by The Drake Navigators Guild (DNG; a group of historians and mariners who study Drake’s 1577– 1580 voyage) and James Spitze. Nautical historian and DNG President Edward Von der Porten had nearly finished the manuscript when he died unexpectedly in 2018; his son, Michael, then saw to its publication. When Francis Drake boldly sailed through the Strait of Magellan and up the west coast of South America in 1579, he left in his wake looted Spanish ships and towns along with hostile mariners and colonists who deemed him a pirate. In fact, Drake was a privateer whose circumnavigation of the globe had been secretly sponsored by Queen Elizabeth and other English investors. This is why, before leaving the California harbor where he careened and re-provisioned his ship, Golden Hind, Drake affixed to a post an engraved brass plate declaring that the local (indigenous) “king and people” had freely relinquished their province to Her Majesty. Drake called this province Nova Albion (Albion being the old Roman name for England). Thus, in 1579 Drake laid claim on behalf of Elizabeth to America’s first New England, six years before English settlers arrived at Roanoke Island and 28 years before Jamestown was occupied. In 1936, Beryle Shinn found a rectangular plate of brass, inscribed and signed “... FRANCIS DRAKE”, at Greenbrae on the northwest shore of San Francisco Bay. This find was announced in April 1937 by Herbert Bolton, an eminent professor of history at the University of California, Berkeley (UCB). Soon afterwards, William Caldeira came forward to say that he had found the very same plate in 1933 near Drakes Bay and later discarded it at Greenbrae. Bolton judged the plate authentic, and metallurgical testing in 1937–1938 seemed confirmatory. Although some scholars expressed doubts, and rumors of a hoax were bruited, the general consensus over the next few decades was that the plate of brass was genuine. Its “discovery” fueled controversy as to where Drake had landed and was used by some to support a San Francisco Bay location. Meanwhile, in March 1937, the president of the California Historical Society (CHS) purchased the plate from Shinn for $3,500 and donated it to UCB.","PeriodicalId":42699,"journal":{"name":"California Archaeology","volume":"8 9","pages":"76 - 78"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41261343","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Reanalysis of its collections and new investigations at the nearby Willow Creek Crossing sites permit reevaluation of archaeological models for the Transverse Ranges of southern California and the adjacent Mojave Desert. Diagnostic artifacts, site structure, and obsidian hydration dating indicate montane Greven Knoll I (9,400-4,000 BP) occupations in inland southern California several millennia earlier than has been previously posited. Moreover, the presence of stemmed points suggests that the Greven Knoll Pattern of the Encinitas Tradition was introduced into the region directly from the Mojave Desert during the onset of the Altithermal. This analysis also serves as a reminder for archaeologists to use ethnohistoric models with caution and to look beyond the obvious.","PeriodicalId":42699,"journal":{"name":"California Archaeology","volume":"14 1","pages":"31 - 67"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46407826","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The directory is also hosted on the Society for American Archaeology’s website to ensure that web links are kept up to date. The authors of this volume revisit and expand upon many of the topics presented in a preceding, similar edited volume, Our Collective Responsibility: The Ethics and Practice of Archaeological Collections Stewardship (Childs 2004). Since that volume was published, there has been recognizable progress in the state of collections care. Preparing for, and justifying the costs of, collectionsrelated tasks has become more routine for project planners. The ways in which collections are put to use for public, community, and scholarly benefit continue to increase. Yet, some challenges persist. In many regions, available repository space is still in short supply and getting slimmer. Funding for curation is chronically insufficient. Many individuals still resist practices that would increase collections access and decision-making agency for stakeholders outside of professional or scholarly settings. In light of these ongoing issues, and in hopes of continuing the upward progress that has been made, this volume is a crucial read for all who take part in creating archaeological collections.","PeriodicalId":42699,"journal":{"name":"California Archaeology","volume":"14 1","pages":"73 - 75"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43534689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This latest edition is yet another important contribution to ancestral California Native American culture. The volume’s many contributors address a broad range of topics and have prepared a report that is arguably one of the most thorough analyses of a Late Period village site in the archaeological literature of the San Francisco Bay region to date. The authors identify the site as within the territory of the CausenOhlone polity, whose members were inducted into Mission San José shortly after its founding in 1797. Dubbed Síi Tuúpentak by the project’s Muwekma Tribal partners (which in the Chochenyo East Bay dialect translates to “Place of the Water Roundhouse”), the village developed in an area that was intermediary between bay shore populations and those residing further inland. Strategically situated within an oak woodland savannah setting behind the East Bay hills in Sunol along Alameda Creek, the residents were ideally placed to benefit from the flow of resources between neighboring and more distant polities. The report goes deep into the weeds describing the site within the framework of its environmental setting, and paleoethnobotanical studies derived from feature and burial contexts provide a wonderfully detailed spectrum of vegetal resources important to the subsistence and economy of the village’s members. Equally impressive are the discussions of the important representations of aquatic and terrestrial dietary fauna derived from careful analysis of selected samples.
